This book introduces students to the study of the earth and the materials that form its structure. Readers learn how to determine the properties of soil, rocks and minerals by testing their hardness and the effects of water and acid on their makeup. Other projects demonstrate how to collect and identify rocks and minerals and how past events can be determined by examining fossils and rock formations found today.
